   If the old building isn’t well insulated, get the thickest insulation you can buy. Not only will it be cheap, it will pay you back after the first couple years.

   If you’re actually on a lot of land, consider mowing the fields and piling all the debris in one place to compost, then extracting heat from the compost pile to heat a room in your house.
